Our cells can respire aerobically for a short time because of the presence of oxygen in our muscles.

Can plants respire and photosynthesize at the same time?

Yes, the can photosynthesize and respire at the same time.


How does volvox respire?

Volvox cells respire through diffusion, where oxygen enters the cell and carbon dioxide exits through the cell membrane. This process allows the cells to extract energy from food molecules to carry out their metabolic functions.


Do cells go through cellular respiration?

cells in mammals respire all the time to keep them warm blooded and keep breathing etc, all animals respire all the time, but some cells are unable to respire due to the fact they lack mitochondria plant cells do respire, but they do not need to at all times, because they do not need energy to move or stay warm.


Explain two ways in which anaerobic respiration in humans is different from aerobic respiration?

Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen and food substances are patially broken down.They releases smaller amount of energy and produces lactic acid or alcohal.In human body, anaerobic respiration often occurs in the muscles during vigorous exercise because they don't get enough oxygen. Anaerobic respiration in humans can only happen for a short amount of time. The reason for this is that Anaerobic means without oxygen, and humans need oxygen to breath. Aerobic means with oxygen, so normally humans aerobically respire. However, if you are short of breath after viscous exercise for a short period of time you anaerobically respire.


When there is no oxygen available to human muscle cells the cells can continue to make ATP for a short time using what?

lactic acid fermentation

Why do plants wilt shortly after watered?

During day time when transpiration occurs watering of plants removes the air from the soil and in the abscence of oxygen root cells can not respire aerobically, hence uptake of water is affected. When the loss of water due to transpiration is not compensated by absorption of water by the roots, wilting is observed in these plants.

What do cells need to work well?

Cells need energy to work, but they get this from using oxygen and glucose to respire, Oxygen + Glucose -> Water + Carbon dioxide and produces energy When oxygen is not available, the body can survive on anaerobic respiration for a short period of time. Glucose -> Lactic acid + Carbon dioxide


When plants respire?

all the time, just like you

What are short term effects of morphine?

Loss of brain cells, indejestion, heart failure, stroke, and jail time.


What makes bacteria living?

Bacteria are living organisms because they exhibit key characteristics of life. They have cellular structure, can reproduce, respond to stimuli, and carry out metabolic processes like obtaining energy and nutrients from their environment. Bacteria can also adapt and evolve over time, which further supports their classification as living organisms.


Do plants only respire at night?

they breath all the time like us, beacuse if they did not breath through the night they would die.................................................................................. this is wat i am saying i dont no if it is true

None with short time use but prolonged messes with your lungs and kills brain cells
